Today, the medical robots have prohibitively high cost due to the deployment of numerous servo-motors for their operation. These motors also increase the size and weight of the robots significantly.
In order to reduce the cost, size & weight of the robots, Prof Bishakh Bhattacharya & his team has taken inspiration from human muscle structure and developed a new artificial muscle system using wires with memory which can generate at least three times more force per unit weight
The overall weight is also reduced to the one third of the original weight. This human like muscle system has the additional advantage of non-magnetic nature so that they can be used in MRI, CT Scanners and various surgical functions.
Inventors from @IITKanpur and @MIT have been granted a joint Indian patent for a unique #water purification device, “A Vessel and A Method for Purifying Water and Monitoring Quality of Water”. #cleanwater
An inexpensive, zero maintenance,easy to manufacture, dry & compact device that has applications in #waterpurification & monitoring and dry sample preservation of micro #water pollutants. This device can purify #drinkingwater & has applications in the food & beverage industry.
I congratulate the team led by Prof Indra Sekhar Sen, IITK alumnus Mr Sri Harsha, Dr Emily Barrett Hanhauser (Fellow, MIT Tata Centre), Prof Rohit N. Karnik (Dept of Mechanical Engineering; Associate Department Head for Education; Tata Professor, @MIT, USA) @KritsnamTech
Here is big news from @IITKanpur

1. ITU defined the requirements of IMT 2020- official ITU name of 5G. Rural enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) configuration focused on intersite distance of 1.7 Km & 120/500 km/hour speed of vehicles - a speed unthinkable in rural India😀. A requirement unsuitable for #India.
2. #TSDSI's Low Mobility Large Cell (LMLC) focuses on low speeds such as 3/30 Km/hour for pedestrian and vehicles and intersite distance of 6 Km to address Indian scenario. . @TSDSI_India@DoT_India@GoI_MeitY@TRAI

.@IITKanpur has always been contributing to the projects of national interest. I feel proud to share that we have contributed our bit to the #KashiVishwanathDham.
Our incubated company Acquafront Infrastructure has successfully deployed a patented technology “Self Adjusting Fixed Type Jetty (SAFTJ)” to construct world’s first floating #CNG filling station for #ecofriendly boats on the Khidkiya Ghat, Varanasi.
The station is designed to ensure the consistent and safe #CNG pipeline connection to all the dispensers with controlled risk factors even in peak flood season.
